Will Kimbrough and Tommy Womack both boast amazing underground resumes. Kimbrough (2005 Americana Music Association Instrumentalist of the Year) and Womack (Two-time winner of the Nashville Scene Best Song Award) first came together in 1992 in the bis-quits. They discovered a musical and personal kinship which they have struggled amongst other commitments – to get back to. With the breakup of the bis-quits in 1994, Kimbrough went on to be lead guitarist in Todd Snider & the Nervous Wrecks, since producing several of Snider’s records, and toured extensively with Rodney Crowell. Tommy Womack is touring Solo in the UK In August starting at Belladrum Festival on August 7th. Publicity Rob Ellen www.medicinemusic.co.uk
